At the April 25th meeting, the school board discussed, and then did not support Trustee Jeanette Vasquez's proposal of a "Safe Haven" resolution that would have expressed local protection for students from federal immigration officials. Before hearing arguments on both sides of the "Safe Haven" resolution, Dr. Chad Hammitt gave an in-depth presentation regarding student mental health and immigration issues. Topics included pro - cedures in the case that federal agents arrive at a school, and immigration resources for Fullerton schools. Some of the 80 people present at the event included Kat Lapuz of Future in Humanity, Briana Stickney of Coast to Coast, Director Larry Haynes of Mercy House, and Austin Drissen of Mercy House.

  • Transgressive Performance from Iggy Pop to Joe
    Clemens Marschall Avant-garde from Below: Transgressive Performance from Iggy Pop to Joe Coleman and GG Allin Clemens Marschall’s book Avant-garde from Below: Transgressive Performance from Iggy Pop to Joe Coleman and GG Allin is an account, through the 20th century and beyond, of a dangerous bastardisation of punk spirit and avant-garde theory. Three very unique characters trace a line through this history of precarious transgression in the fringes of popular culture: Iggy Pop, who was punk before punk; Joe Coleman, who distanced himself from the then-existing punk scene; and GG Allin, who died for what he thought was punk, thus putting the final nail in the coffin of the ‘avant-garde from below’. In this book, the story of confrontational performance art is not only told by the protagonists themselves, but also by people who are usually in the background: promoters, Published by Rokko’s Adventures editors, partners, friends – and enemies.
